Abstract
The article describes patterns of immigration of Yugoslav immigrants into Canada and it analyses the impact of the new immigration policy. Canadian immigration policy has been, historically, increasingly restrictive thus determining the structure of the immigrant population; at first, it had been entirely open, then it gradually introduced increasingly rigid criteria and it was reflected on the selectiveness with respect to the immigrant population, especially in relation to its education and qualifications. Accordingly, the whole process ends up in a »brain-drain«; its consequences have yet to be researched in an intensive and systematic manner.
